The critically acclaimed action-adventure gameBatman: Arkham Knightis getting a new update very soon.
The new suit will be available onNintendo Switchfirst on December 1 onceBatman: Arkham Trilogyofficially launches on the handheld console. After this, players can enjoy the iconic suit from Robert Pattinson’sThe Batmanfor free while galivanting aroundArkham Knightand beating up bad guys. The suit will then become available on other platforms such asPS4,Xbox One, and PC at a later date. Unfortunately, as of yet, there is no indication as to when this may be.
In atweetby Nintendo of America, the good news was announced alongside a shorttrailerthat lasted just over a minute. This video showed off every fantastic corner ofArkham Knight, including Mark Hamill’s iconic Joker and the dreary and dark city of Gotham.
Nintendo of America’s tweet also contained information onpre-orders. If you’re a die-hard fan of theArkham Trilogy, you can purchase it for $59.99/ £49.99 at the Nintendo Store. This will get you all threeArkhamgames, DLC, and the newest suit all in one go.
While it’s amazing to see this iconic series come to Nintendo, this and the reveal of a new suit haven’t come out of the blue. A few months ago,in late October, Robert Pattinson’s Batman suit unexpectedly appearedinEpic Games' store. While this isn’t the first update or new content the eight-year-old game has received, the addition was still surprising asArkham Knighthasn’t received anything extra for a few years now. However, any signs of life on an iconic yet aging game is still brilliant news, especially with it coming to a new platform in a few days.
